John , I think I have found another part of the problem...perhaps another bug. I have a web control object on my form. If I have the command... PROPERTY bigpdf gourl .vdisplayname anywhere in the eep before and maybe even after the PROPERTY id_key_stroke_ln SET_FOCUS 'true' then the SET_FOCUS does not work. I even tried moving PROPERTY bigpdf gourl .vdisplayname to the first statement in the ON ENTRY EEP of the variable edit and that killed the blinking cursor and the SET_FOCUS. Would refreshing the web browser control be incomplatible with the SET_FOCUS command? Am I making sense? Mike
